"We can however confirm the exciting news that we are now working very closely with Nintendo to look to bring Yooka-Laylee to the upcoming Nintendo Switch. We’re looking forward to exploring the opportunity and will have more details to share early next year."
Kickstarter backers for the game who chose to receive the Wii U version will have the option to get a digital copy of the game on another platform, wait for news on a Switch edition, or get in contact with Playtonic to discuss a refund.Those who didn't back the game during the crowdfunding phase can now pre-order it for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Its final price has been set at £34.99 / $39.99 USD, and pre-orders will receive access to the previously backer-exclusive Toybox demo.
